police or protesters everyone i like has their eyes and noses we're cheering for melissa tear gas there's more tough cut tales trying through the air as well only pavements have been ripped up. as of some of the branches of the trees it's a real street but there's a green going on now through this night in such a journey that these people absolutely determined the crowds of protesters don't know how much more she was changing the right to make that declaration that he didn't want to give yourself sweeping was last tuesday they wind up completely missing. the ration luly they will all have to risk right. mohamed morsi for his part has said that he does not want to become a dictator he wants compromise he's trying to work with the judges and he wants to make sure egypt gets a proper constitution however people here are simply off buying that judges

themselves have gone on strike they've been protests in cities around egypt and these have been the scenes with protests some protestors having died reports of many more having been injured we've seen both police and protesters being carried back by their calm rates having been wounded by flying stones and choking on on tape gas the situation here immensely tense that this is really not just a constitutional crisis that it was it's not the of the political crisis that unless most of them do something to. get serious about giving up these cars and not trying to take the kind of power they see mubarak has been these protests seem likely to go on and on. egypt's supreme constitutional court has accused morsi of targeting it specifically khaled. al-harbi newspaper says
8:04 am
the president is putting himself above the law and compared his behavior to fascism . divided. civil war fortunately this president is doing the very same things for which. before. this is what we are looking. people are saying no to the new newly born. looking at this crowd you cannot tell who is muslim or christian who's liberal leftist this is the people who are saying no to new religious fascism making the president of. the president and the muslim brotherhood behind him have already lost their credibility they have promised so many things in the past
8:05 am
never kept their promises that's why most of these people are in the streets they were talking about over a million up till now because they are not happy with this right you can share your opinion on the what's going on in egypt and what it will eventually lead to by costing you no thought at archie dot com here's all the votes are lining up say five thirty of those who voted believe morsi will cancel his new laws in order to stay in power almost as many say this disturbance will see the military and allies of ex-president mubarak return to power one in five or think further instability would lead to an intervention by western powers like the bia and a little less of them that say mostly will resign and really take place very now at r.t. . they have been president and where he's taking the country is the focus of debate on peter lavelle's cross talk show coming up at fifteen thirty g.m.t.
8:06 am
. because the wrong. conclusion. i think used to be revolution the reason he had to act is the judicial council was going to overturn him blocked the constitution and prevented from being finalized and i think the white house is going to give them a little space it's not pretty but i dispute the idea that always in history temporary powers become permanent powers the general rhetoric back a morsi is always a little more time a little more time and that is let's consider that. since last year the brotherhood they've had powers and they've been in parliament and we've seen how they reacted to every single crisis the police is brutal as brutal as ever he is currently targeting the general public prosecutor so in my opinion that that is just a take over.

palestinian officials threatening to appeal to the international criminal court if it's proven that the late leader yasser arafat was killed his grave was opened on tuesday and samples from his remains collected three teams of international investigators will test them for radioactive substances results are said to be revealed in a few months inquiry was launched eight years after our sites death which was officially calling a mystery illness israel denied palestinian accusation of assassinated arafat saying it had nothing to gain from his demise and a political analyst oman a shop he says the new investigation into our five deaths could actually be used as a tool to cause a rift between rival palestinian political forces. if there is a poisoning of president arafat someone must have put the poison in his food or must have put his poison on his skin and to do that it must be someone from his
8:08 am
close on two hours and to open this investigation would create disputes within the fatah movement and within the close people to yasser arafat who are now the closest people to mahmoud abbas so therefore the question is is there a political objective on the part of qatar to support such an investigation or is it just an investigation because people really want to know what happened to their leader and they want justice to be you know achieved. american hari into our father's death comes as the u.n. prepares to vote on whether palestine should receive none member of the other staters at the organization if approved it would mean international recognition other palestinian state and give additional powers like taking issues to the international criminal court and participating in un general assembly debates france has already said it will vote in the favor of the bit at the u.k. is also reportedly leaning towards backing the resolution while the u.s. is strongly opposed chick i don't me our senior policy analyst at the reason

foundation think tank says the bid is the only option for the palestinian authorities to strengthen their positions. short run i don't doubt they will make things worse. it really is that world ready been saying that this is an inflammatory for about fifty louve which essentially says that the fellas dinny and are not going to live by the agreement of the men in the oslo accords and if that's the case then they feel no need to continue negotiating negotiations are beginning going to regions with the palestinians so i think for a while for sure this is not going to help the peace process but you know i think from the palestinian standpoint the freeze peace process was not going anywhere anyway and so the phones they are concerned they don't have all that much to lose perhaps right now in pushing that probably israeli standpoint obviously on one hand not to do anything about this move with about a bus it doesn't look good it makes them look weak on the other hand if they we

a far cry from gun toting al-qaeda in the afghan mountains the terror now facing france's much more sinister blending right into society and the cause of it our friends use short of cash and opportunities are flocking to radical islam those are g.'s alessia chefs he reports tracking homegrown terrorism is not proving easy. the recent national police raid on radical islamist groups in france made headlines with a rasta made in all regions the youngest suspected terrorist was only nineteen but it was not the age which shocked so many little we discovered a network of seven additional people living primarily in paris strasburg and can all these people were born in france and are french nationals they are linked to

the radical islamist movement police say the group was plotting at least twenty five terrorist attacks against jewish organizations and schools and age of twelve detainees were french natives who had converted to radical islam and experts say this worrying trend is gathering pace as the financial crisis group's europe and many youth are finding themselves out of work if you go and you say you are excluded in the best way to change your life. and most of it would not work with the majority of course but did the majority need to have permanent fruits of people converting economic crisis deepening it probably creates more exclusion and so more people to requote in the midst of communities or to convert to. islam france is no stranger to combating radical islamist groups since the nine hundred fifty s. it has been countering all jiri in iranian and lebanese terrorists and more
8:13 am
recently al qaeda but this is a totally different matter just like most of europe over the years france has grown very successful in reinforcing its borders and preventing most of the threat coming from abroad but with more and more homegrown radical organizations appearing on its soil tracking down possible terrorists with sports would be very hard if not completely impossible security services believe for now the situation is under control as the conversion to radical islam is still relatively rare but no one can guaranteed stays this way as the number of violent incidents by french. islams is already on the increase of secret service are really well experiments to fight these kinds of terrorism and they are watching very carefully in the suburbs in your town that the leader of the most cues and all the people who are probably in. radical muslim countries but this doesn't mean that we will stay safe from any. security specialists going many arab immigrants living in french suburbs have

their political views are finding others the law used to convict most social media offenses was drafted before twitter and facebook were even conceived it was meant to protect individuals from being harassed or threatened over the telephone free speach. each advocates question how that relates to posting your opinion online the trouble is that when things are post on things like twitter and facebook is that they're there for all to see and for people to share and so the definite becomes an element of mob rule and then pressure is put on the police forces to act on that rather than abiding to the legal system that we currently heard of teenager matthew woods found out all about more brule often making offensive tweets about a missing five year old girl an angry crowd gathered outside his house and he was arrested and sentenced to twelve weeks in jail but i don't think anyone ever expected political correctness to become a criminal law. if. somebody is rude to me then i want the
